ABSTRACT Background: The objective of the study was to find out the prevalence of among pregnant women and to study the foetal outcome in antenatal mothers in whom treatment was initiated early in pregnancy. Methods: This was a descriptive study conducted in the department of OBG Sree Gokulam Medical College, Venjaramoodu, Trivandrum from April 2013 to Oct antenatal women coming for routine antenatal check up in the first trimester to antenatal OP were screened for.tsh(thyroid stimulating hormone) was done in the first trimester and the prevalence of was estimated. Patients were diagnosed as having subclinical or overt based on the FT3 (free T3) and FT4 (free T4) results. Patients detected with both subclinical and overt were started on appropriate dose of L-thyroxin depending on her gestational age, body weight and level of TSH. Every 6weeks TSH levels were estimated and the dose of the drug adjusted. All these patients were followed up for their foetal outcome such as intrauterine demise, hyperbilirubinemia, prematurity, stillbirths and neonatal. Results: In the present study, the prevalence of was 5.6% of which 4% were having subclinical and 1.6% was having overt. No significant difference in foetal complications, perinatal mortality and morbidity was noted between hypothyroid and euthyroid women. Conclusions: TSH testing should be included in routine antenatal investigations for early detection of subclinical and overt among antenatal women and early treatment should be initiated so as to prevent complications. Keywords: Hypothyroidism, Overt, Subclinical, Foetal outcome INTRODUCTION Thyroid disorders are prevalent in women of child bearing age. Thyroid disorders are the second most common cause of endocrine dysfunction complicating pregnancy. Hypothyroidism is common in pregnancy with an estimated prevalence of 2-3% for subclinical and % for overt. Maternal is the most common disorder of thyroid function in pregnancy and has been associated with miscarriage, foetal loss, preeclampsia, preterm delivery, abruption, low birth weight, foetal distress and reduced intellectual function of the offspring. 1 These adverse outcomes have been associated with both overt as well as subclinical. Overt is diagnosed when an abnormally high Serum thyrotropin level is accompanied by an abnormally low thyroxin level. Subclinical is defined as an elevated Serum TSH level and normal Serum thyroxin concentration. As the foetus does not begin to produce its own thyroid hormones until 12 weeks of gestation, it is solely dependent on circulating maternal thyroid hormone levels, so it is critical that maternal delivery of thyroxin to the foetus is ensured early in gestation. Uncorrected thyroid dysfunction in pregnancy increases the incidence June 2016 Volume 5 Issue 6 Page 1892
2 of miscarriages, low birth weight, foetal death, and stillbirth. The deleterious effects of thyroid dysfunction can also extend beyond pregnancy and delivery to affect the intellectual development in the early life of the child. Thus any delay in the diagnosis and treatment of may ultimately result in a progeny with educational, socioeconomic and public health consequences. The present study was carried out to estimate the prevalence of among antenatal patients and to initiate early treatment so as to prevent foetal complications. METHODS This was a descriptive longitudinal study, undertaken at Sree Gokulam Medical College (SGMC), Trivandrum. The study was conducted for a period of 18 months from April 2013 to Oct The study population included 500 consecutive antenatal patients attending OPD. Inclusion criteria Antenatal patients who are in the first trimester of pregnancy attending antenatal OPD at SGMC. Singleton pregnancy. Patients already diagnosed with and on treatment. Exclusion criteria Diabetes and hypertension. Multifoetal gestation. Patients who had previous adverse pregnancy outcome with known cause. 500 consecutive new antenatal patients coming to OPD in first trimester of pregnancy for regular antenatal visits were taken for the study. After obtaining informed consent, a detailed history was taken using a structured proforma. Serum TSH testing was done. Hypothyroidism was diagnosed if TSH value was 2.5 or more. If TSH was deranged, then F T3 and F T4 levels were checked. Depending upon FT3 and FT4 levels, they were diagnosed as subclinical or overt. Thyroxin was started for both groups. Every 6 weeks, TSH levels were estimated and dose of the drug was adjusted. All these women were followed up for their foetal outcome: prematurity, foetal death, stillbirth, neonatal hyperbilirubinemia (cord bilirubin level > 2.5 mg/dl) and congenital (cord blood TSH and day 3 TSH levels >20 IU/ml). Data collected was analysed using the statistical software SPSS version 20 with assistance of a statistician. The study variables were checked using appropriate statistical tests (Kruskal-Wallis test, Mann-Whitney test and p values). RESULTS Table 1: Distribution of study population according to age.

Uncorrected thyroid dysfunction in pregnancy has adverse effects on maternal and foetal wellbeing. Thyroid disorders are the second most common endocrinological disorders found in pregnancy with a prevalence of overt in % of pregnancies and subclinical in 2-3%. 2 The present study was done in Sree Gokulam Medical College, Venjaramoodu, Trivandrum. A total of 500 antenatal women were screened for during the study period of 18 months. This was a descriptive study. The aim of the study was to know the prevalence of in pregnancy and to know the foetal outcome in treated women. The mean age of hypothyroid population was 25.5+/-3.9 years. The mean age for subclinical was 24.9+/-3.9 and overt was 26.9+/-3.6. Study by Ajmani et al found that maternal age was high in the overt hypothyroid with a mean age of / years. 3 In our study, among 28 hypothyroid women, 18 (6.5%) were above 25 years as compared to 10 (4.5%) women aged less than 25 years. This shows increasing prevalence of as maternal age advances. In the study of Akhter SN et al, it was observed that 62.1% of subclinical hypothyroid patients were in the years age group and 66.7% of the overt patients were in the year age group. 1 In our study no statistical difference was seen with respect to parity in different groups. A study by Nirmala et al about maternal outcome of in pregnancy- a south Indian study also showed no statistical difference with respect to parity in different groups. 4 Unlike the present study, in the study by Akhter SN et al, it was reported that both subclinical and overt was predominant in multipara. 1 Hypothyroidism is a common condition with a prevalence of % in the general population. The prevalence of in our study was 5.6% which is comparable with the study by Goel et al in which prevalence of was 6.3%. 5 In the study by Ajmani et al the prevalence of was 12% which is higher than our study. 3 In our study, the prevalence of subclinical was 4%. This is comparable to the study by Goel et al, where the prevalence of subclinical was 3.4%. In a study by Goldman C et al, the prevalence was 2.2% and another study by Ajmani et al, the prevalence was 9%. 3,5,6 In a study by Casey BM et al, the prevalence was 23% which is very high and inconsistent with our study. 7 In the present study, the prevalence of overt was 1.6% which is comparable to the study by Cleary Goldman et al, where the prevalence was less than 1%. In a study by Goel. 5,6 The prevalence of overt was 2.9% and another study by Ajmani et al showed prevalence of 3%; whereas a study by Sahu MT showed a higher prevalence of 4.58%. 2,3 In this study, no significant association was observed between preterm labour. The incidence of preterm labour in subclinical was 5% and in overt was 12.5%. A study conducted by Nirmala et al in Kerala found that preterm labour was seen in 25.6% of cases and 20.5% of controls and the difference was not statistically significant. 4 A study by Ajmani et al observed that the incidence of preterm birth in overt was higher (33%) than the present study and in subclinical, the incidence was 11.2% compared to euthyroid women. 3 Casey B M et al found that preterm birth was almost 2 fold higher in women with subclinical. 7 In the present study, 5% subclinical hypothyroid women had foetal death and 12.5% overt women had foetal death which is much higher compared to 0.4% cases in euthyroid women. In a study conducted by Allan WC, Haddow JE et al, the rate of foetal death was significantly higher. Similar findings were observed by Stagnaro Green and associates who found that increased incidence of foetal death with a rate of 17% among hypothyroid group. 8,9 In the present study 21.4% babies with neonatal hyperbilirubinemia were born to hypothyroid women compared to 16.5% babies born to euthyroid women. This is statistically insignificant. Similar to this study, Ajmani et al observed that the incidence of neonatal hyperbilirubinemia in normal population was 6.1% in subclinical and 11.8% in overt with no statistical significance. 3 In our study, all babies born to hypothyroid women had normal thyroid function as shown by cord blood TSH values. In a study by Akhter SN et al observed a similar finding that none of the babies were hypothyroid as shown by cord blood TSH values. 1 Similarly Basnet P, International Journal of Reproduction, Contraception, Obstetrics and Gynecology Volume 5 Issue 6 Page 1895
5 Aggarwal N, Suri V et al observed that all new born babies had normal thyroid function. 10 CONCLUSION The prevalence of in our study was 5.6%. Of this, the prevalence of subclinical was 4 % and that of overt was 1.6%. Hypothyroidism during pregnancy was found to be more common among women 25 years or more but the difference was not statistically significant. No statistical difference with respect to was noted in different parity groups. Foetal complications like prematurity, foetal death/stillbirth, neonatal hyperbilirubinemia and congenital did not show any significant association. This study concludes that the prevalence of in pregnancy was significantly high. Subclinical and overt was prevalent in pregnant women and if detected early will lead to decreased incidence of foetal complications. This emphasises the importance of routine thyroid screening for all antenatal women. Early initiation of treatment and maintenance of abnormal level of thyroid hormones significantly minimizes the risk of maternal and foetal complications and makes it possible that the pregnancy may be carried to term without severe complications.
